Why Science Says You NEED A Trip To The Beach

Desperate for a trip to the beach but can’t justify the expense? Well guess what, not only is it beneficial to you, science actually says it is good for your brain. Do you think it’s just a coincidence that Hawaii is so often voted the happiest state to live in?

Being near a large body of blue water immediately distresses you and relaxes you into a meditative state. (source) If you combine that with the tranquility of the ocean waves, you will feel so peaceful.

In fact the lucky ones that live near a coast are in overall better health not just emotionally, but their overall general health. (source)

So how are you going to afford this glorious trip to the beach? For starters, for every birthday and holiday you might receive a gift for, I would ask that they grab a Southwest Airlines gift cardright on Amazon. Start saving those up!
